1) 70% of an advertising campaign's success depends on the quality of the creative content. On YouTube, ads need to grab attention quickly within the first few seconds as viewers can skip ads. 2) Unexpected openings, featuring people like celebrities or humor are effective attention-grabbing techniques. Medium shots of people also help engage viewers on mobile. 3) Branding goals like ad recall or view-through rate should inform how and when brands are integrated into videos. Multiple branding cues like audio and video can significantly increase awareness and consideration.

- RIVERS OF THINKING
- These videos are a good warmup to put the audience in the TrueView mindset. Video 1: slides 3 and 4 (divided pre/post 5 seconds) Video 2: slides 4 and 5 (divided pre/post 5 seconds). Start by playing the first 5 seconds of video 1 (slide 3). Ask the audience if they would skip after 5 seconds (most would because there is no hook). Play the remainder (slide 4) to show what they would have missed. Now play the first 5 seconds of the second video (slide 5). Ask the audience if they would skip (most are interested to see what happens next). Play the rest of the second video (slide 6). Ask the audience why they choose to skip video 1 and watch video 2.
- Use this video to demonstrate how movie trailers often subvert the traditional commercial story arc. Have the audience pay attention to the the animated graph that demonstrated the non-linear sequencing.
- Eye tracking research conducted by the ARF that demonstrates the differences between TV and mobile ad viewing. Notice the TV viewing experience is more concentrated while mobile is more sporadic. Also note the relative difference in screen size and how that may impact the emotional appeal of wide sweeping shots that play well on TV but may fall short on mobile.

- This slide is a build to demonstrate how the average adult attention span in the US has decreased over the last decade and a half (below that of a goldfish). And moreover, when it comes to online content, you only have a few seconds to make that first impression...so make it good. Remember: online ads are skippable whether or not they have a “skip” button. And viewers are itching to leave. So, grab their attention! You have five seconds...

- Lean into the power of pacing, especially for Mobile. The majority of YT watch time is now Mobile. Pacing is key to keeping viewers engaged on these intensely personal devices. For Bumper Ads, you can still tell a story in 6 seconds. Consider creating individual versions spotlighting different “characters” from your longer-format piece Use YouTube Analytics retention curves to understand where viewers are dropping. Can you make changes accordingly? Can you fold your learnings into the next round of creative development? Can you test if two different versions perform differently?

You can send people to your website, to another site, to another video or playlist. You can ask them to comment, or vote - all right there in the player. So - make it clear what action you want your viewer to take, and make it easy for them to do it.
